Those guys are only out to promote their amateur little podcast and the name to further their interests. If you listen/watch their episode # 236, they are talking just 2 months ago about the NYC Expo with the same promoter Derek Christopher, and Peter Criss was the special guest who DID NOT WANT th...

I was very surprised to hear Three Sides would be there. I thought VV wasn't a fan of Brandvolt? Incidentally, next week, Three Sides of the Coin are interviewing the event organiser, to interview him about how he found Vinnie. Should be an interesting chat. My prediction: he'll show up, will go thr...

A tour would be too much. Can't see that happening at his age, with all the water under the bridge and having not performed properly in nearly 30 years? I can't see anyone taking that on, even if VV wanted to do it. Besides, aside from Bobby Rock who I think would do it for shits and giggles, Fleisc...

Reflecting in this for a minute, I think this is a huge deal. Aside from the fact that this is a VV forum, and our man has appeared out of nowhere. Here's a guy who shunned the limelight for whatever reason for the last few years, and is clearly prepared to put himself out there again. And he's not ...

Just spotted this interesting snippet in the FAQ section of the website: https://www.lakissexpo.com/faq Is there anything Vinnie won't sign? ​ Because Vinnie is working on a new line of custom Vinnie Vincent Model Guitars, Vinnie will not be able to sign any guitars or musical instruments. A new lin...

I wondered why I was having a conversation with myself in the thread in the News Section, then I found this! Great stuff - and great to hear this tune live. Much of what Mark put down with VVI is very challenging for any vocalist, so I'm surprised he did as good a job as he did after all these years...

A nice update from Bobby on this on his Facebook page this morning! Look who Mark Slaughter and I ran into at the hotel restaurant tonight: One Mr. Dana Strum! Over three decades later, "The Three Musketeers" are still out here doin' it. Dana's hittin' in town tomorrow night with Vince Neil; Mark an...

Picked up this little snippet from Bobby's Facebook page today: Looking forward to playing with my bro again at the first-ever Mark Slaughter solo show - June 22 in NYC - in support of his killer new release, “Halfway There.” Bad-ass band, featuring Mike Himmel on guitar and Jaymi Millard on bass: J...

I'm no handwriting expert, but someone should get a graphologist to look at this. His style is very flamboyant it seems to me, much like his guitar playing I suppose. Some basics that seem relevant to this letter, according to a quick Google search: 1. People who apply light pressure when writing tr...

This was a good listen - thanks for sharing. What is refreshing is that Bobby seems to be one of the few people who worked with Vinnie that doesn't take the easy route of just dismissing him as a fruitcake/whackjob/whatever. He goes a bit deeper behind his actions and behaviour and at least gives us...

I was holding back a bit as I was didn't want to offend if it was written by someone on here. But by Christ, it's a poorly written piece. The whole thing is based around two "facts". It's a great example of what the internet has become. Any idiot with an opinion can skim read something they read on ...

His fans too took great advantage of him and used his fame to excel with their shady motives. He was hired by a fan, to design his signature guitar, that was later titled VV Guitar and was widely sold, only to benefit the investor. While Vinnie Vincent didn’t pay him a cent for his contribution. Eh...

I was very surprised there wasn't more celebration of Eric's life this year with the 25th anniversary thing. Didn't see anything put out from the band or in the media really, unless I missed it. Shame.

I was idling around on YouTube this afternoon watching live videos. The '83 Rio Live performance came on. https://youtu.be/TjAA9Tlpiqk?t=576 And it struck me. Here was a guy, 30 years old, who had achieved only moderate success as a musician up to that point, and he steps into the shoes of Ace Frehl...

Came across these pics. Not seen many of them before. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-11-17%20at%2015.55.28_zpsdgvvskud.png http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-11-17%20at%2015.58.02_zpsqnrmvbw6.png http://i10.photobuck...

I saw Ace a few years back. Was expecting a car crash, and had it in my head to leave early, but he was incredible. Great energy about him and you really appreciate his playing when watching live. IMO this is the best track on the album, although I don't like Ace's singing style when he does that ta...

Stumbled across these pics over the weekend. I'd not seen many of them before: http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-06-26%20at%2010.33.35_zpswn79r3qv.png http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-06-26%20at%2010.34.00_zpsztk0pivo...

I was never a fan of Lita Ford - that's not to say I don't like her music, just never had the opportunity to listen or see her live. So on Saturday I saw Bobby Rock mention on Instagram that he was playing with her over here in England for one show that very night. I managed to grab a ticket just 3 ...

It's an interesting insight into his playing style, but I can't say I've listened to it more than once. The fatigue would set in for me after 10 minutes. Not to mention you can't select any tracks, it just plays through as one recording.

Apologies in advance if these are reposts, but I've not seen this set before. Not the most flattering set of pictures, but still... http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-04-26%20at%2014.56.32_zpswwd304jl.png http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/S...

Having a bit of a clearout as we are about to move house, and stumbled across my old CD collection. Forgot I had this. It was a Special Edition re-release of the VVI albums, by Zoom Club Records, a UK based label. I bought it back in 2003 at a record fare over here in the UK. I'm not sure if it saw ...

From carvinmuseum.com: The '89 catalog showed this interesting photo of guitarist Vinnie Vincent, which was taken from his video "Love Kills". Although the X100B stacks are obviously Carvin, less obvious is the one-off VVV Carvin that Vinnie is playing (VVV = Vinnie Vincent V). This evidently was cr...
